DESCRIPTION

A striking chart of Booth Bay Harbor, Maine showing bathymetry (numerous soundings), aids and hazards to navigation, terrestrial relief by hachures, rocks, islands, inlets, bays, creeks/rivers etc. Some general property lines and places shown also. The chart covers the area from Sagadahoc Bay to Linekin's Bay

IMPORTANT NOTE:

All of our United States Coast Survey (USCS), United States Coast & Geodetic Survey (USC&GS), and similar maps and charts have been professionally unfolded and flattened using humidity baths, semi-permeable membrane, and drying blotter techniques. Most others you typically see on eBay have not been, and worse, are quickly and crudely unfolded for the low-quality photos you see. Unfolding these maps in that way is damaging and weakens them. Please be aware.
